This is a thread where you vote for best graphics. An attached image would be nice also, for evidence.

I'd vote for Resident Evil1 for Gamecube. Man, look at the lighting and texturing in this screen. My friends and I freaked out during this part.

SnakeEyes
Doom 3
Farcry
Half-life 2
and maybe one of the Silent Hill games

SaTsuJiN
Resident Evil 4
Chronicles of Riddick
World of Warcraft / Warcraft 3

JKozzy
Zone of the Enders: The Second Runner was damn impressive, if I do say so myself.

Usually PC games have the better graphics. Personally I think Team Ninja did a great job with the graphics of Ninja Gaiden.

ZomBiE_HunTER
Half 2 and Re4 I think are really nice. cool cool

ragesRemorse
riddick, ,gran turismo 3, half life 2.

dark1365
Half Life 2 is good...

Morridini
Metroid Prime, lovely graphic.

Smasandian
PC: Half Life 2, Doom 3 and Far Cry.
GC: Resident Evil 4
XBOX: Chronicles of Riddick
PS2:not sure

Out of all, Half Life 2.

Punk Tiger
Starfox Adventures, very realistic and very real! You could see ery detail of it was perfect, the sky, the ocean, the sand... everything was great! The water was shiny and the sun brightened up the sky! I'll post better shots!

§pearhead
Er...I'd have to say Myst and Riven erm

Mario game laughing

Sith Master X
I'd have to say Star Wars: Rogue Squadrant II.

dark1365
Haha dave...

Smasandian
Well, it still has great graphics. Graphics can involve artistic design, not just how real a world looks like.
I also the Wind Waker had great graphics.

Lord_Andres
Doom3

Punk Tiger
Wind Waker does have great graphics, they look great, really really nice, but not me but I still love it, I have game wink

Linkalicious
Half Life 2
Doom3
Far Cry

JToTheP
Halo 2, Resident Evil Remake, Resident Evil 4, Metroid Prime 1 & 2, Wind Waker and most PC games I'm sure.

dark1365
Windwaker? What the f**k?

mastergadenGT
Doom 3, Half Life 2, Ninja Gaiden, Halo 2, Halo 1, Chronicles of Riddick, Resident Evil 4, Battlefield 1942

Punk Tiger
It's a Legend of Zelda game... although I think this game has been ruined, it's supposed to be about Hyrule, fields, ghosts etc, like the other games (Ocarina of Time is great!) But this is nothing like other Zelda games, it's supposed to be like another kind of year, years ago, how it was like (although I do like the game).

Sorry I bragged, this is off topic

DanZeke25
the very first GTA

Tex
Resident Evil (Gamecube) Resident Evil 0 (Gamecube) Resident Evil 4 (Gamecube) Metroid Prime I & II. Legend of Zelda the Windwaker.

Kaistar
Technically, Half-Life 2 are the best (I think, that or Doom 3 i believe)

Gryn Jabar
Phsaw Zork.

Rurounikeitaro
Any tecmo game, which basically means:
Ninja Gaiden
Dead or Alive Beach Volleyball
Dead or Alive Ultimate and pt 3

And if anything comes out with even better graphics "cause there is none with better graphics", Ninja Gaiden 2 or Dead or Alive 4 will take them down in a second!

DEFCON One
Best graphics are Half-Life 2, Doom3, Farcry

Sith Master X
How could I forget on of my favorite games? lol But yes, I loved WW's graphics.

Punk Tiger

_Sanctuary_
Anything on Xbox! (75% better graphics than playstation 2) Dead or alive 3! (On dead or alive extreme beach volleyball the graphics were a little too good..messed)
bunny

TwisterGameX
Splinter cell chaos theaory and Ninja Gaiden has the best gameplay graphics and Gaiden also has very good cut scene graphics.

jerlark386
I think age of empires 3 deserves an honorable mention.

Prettiest water I've seen in a strategy game yet.

Thats pretty good for an pc game.

Doc Ock
Doom 3's graphics are simply gorgeous.

Nuff said.

TwisterGameX
That game is great. Just when you think the graphics can't get any better then this.

Great Vengeance
TES IV Oblivion and Gears of War will be beyond anything we have seen so far.

not true. most of the early xbox games were ported from the pc. and were not that great.

the ps2 pulled some great stuff this year, and figured out how to make graphics look better.

Jak3
Burnout Takedown, Revenge
Zone of Enders 2nd runner
Killzone

...killzone 2!!!!!!!

TwisterGameX
Metal gear solid 3...nuff said.

i think that resident evil games have very good graphics but quake 4 has better and elder scrools

Celestial
Halo 2, Resident Evil 4, and Sonic Heroes.

The Highlord
its easy, Quake4, F.E.A.R, Half Life2 go beyond anything any consol can offer by far!

LepperFace15
Half-Life 2, Doom 3, Far Cry, Resident Evil 4 . . . all of which I own.

Hehe.

powerfulone1987
Final Fantasy X and X-2

Lana
X-2's graphics weren't really that much better than FFX's.

However, the cinematics for FFX were simply stunning, and the ingame graphics were very good, too.

StinkFist462
Half Life 2, Doom 3, that one vin diesel game.. butcher bay or whatever

thats all i can think of

That's why I just stated them both, since they both had really the same quality of graphics and were equally good looking.

I really have to say...Pikmin.

Just jaw-dropping.

powerfulone1987
I dropped my jaw just reading your post.

RedAlertv2
Half Life 2

Hit_and_Miss
Doom3 has probably the best utilisation of graphics in a game... Never has black been so scary!

Anyone who used the duck-tape mod, in my eyes shouldn't be aloud to own that game!

HL2, ff7 in game vids were great for the time! (one of the first times I actually appreciated good graphics) and fable was quite pretty...

Yeah, me too.

TwisterGameX
We talking about game play cutscenes or both ?

DarkC
Gameplay.

TwisterGameX
I will say it again...NINJA GAIDEN...well Halo 2 has shiny areas but still...as for quake..I never seen or heard of that game.

DarkC
Ninja Gaiden is definitely good on the graphics scale. OXM gave it best graphics of 2004, over Halo 2.

Hit_and_Miss
HAVEN'T HEARD OF QUAKE!!!! Next your going to say you have only played doom 3.... You sir need a lesson in video game history!

NG is a very good game! Never has being a ninja been sooo much fun...

That's more like NOT utilising graphics.

True. Lighted fiery areas and such are extremely detailed though.

It would have to be both.
You can't talk about the other and leave the other out.
That's like a car without an engine.

They go together.

Is it comprehensible.....

The Highlord
Well Doom3 or Quake4 rather since it uses the same engine but it makes better use of it, i'd say has the best graphics along with HL2 and FEAR have the best graphics in a game released so far, also if we are talking about cinemathic scences Blizzard is clearly the best, remeber that dwarf hunter in the WoW trailer? SOOO well done, you could see every hair and stuff very very very nice, also they make the characters in the cinemathic move like they ware real, very nice fysics in their programs
